If a mutual love of sports is what brought you and your future husband or wife closer together, chances are you'll probably want to showcase that throughout your big day. Since gathering loved ones for a post-ceremony sporting event isn't always an option (or a preference!), many couples have found other fresh, décor-centric ways to inject their love of the game into virtually every aspect of their wedding days.

Ahead, you'll discover a series of our favorite sports-themed big-day details. From the ballpark to the basketball court to the golfing green, these sporty motifs were a nod to couples' passion for their favorite teams and activities. Take this set-up by Ashton Events—it was inspired by a March Madness bracket—for example. Eleven Note created the couple's custom monogram (featuring their initials on a basketball!); Wish Vintage Rentals provided the white locker, trophies, and locker room bench for an extra-sporty vibe.

Need more inspiration? In the following slides, you'll find everything from large game-day installations to the tiniest of sporty accents. One of our favorite small-scale ideas came from two groomsmen, who wore cufflinks featuring their favorite teams' crests. The gist? There are so many ways to hit it out of the park with sports-themed wedding décor. Whether it's handing out a signature stadium snacks or asking your cake baker to include a fondant football on the groom's cake, there's no wrong way to execute these options. Prepare to be inspired by these sports-themed wedding ideas—they'll infuse your big day with a little bit of game day.
